The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
OXIS International, Inc. (collectively, “OXIS” or the “Company”) is engaged in discovering, developing and commercializing novel therapeutics from our proprietary product platform in a broad range of disease areas. Currently, OXIS develops innovative drugs focused on the treatment of cancer.  OXIS' lead drug candidate, OXS-2175, is a small molecule therapeutic candidate targeting the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer.  In in vitro and in vivo models of TNBC, OXS-2175 demonstrated the ability to inhibit metastasis.  OXIS' lead drug candidate, OXS-4235, also a small molecule therapeutic candidate, targets the treatment of multiple myeloma and associated osteolytic lesions.  In in vitro and in vivo models of multiple myeloma, OXS-4235 demonstrated the ability to kill multiple myeloma cells, and decrease osteolytic lesions in bone. OXIS' lead drug candidate, OXS-1550, is a bispecific scFv recombinant fusion protein-drug conjugate composed of the variable regions of the heavy and light chains of anti-CD19 and anti-CD22 antibodies and a modified form of diphtheria toxin as its cytotoxic drug payload. OXS-1550 has demonstrated success in early human clinical trials in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma or leukemia.
 
In 1965, the corporate predecessor of OXIS, Diagnostic Data, Inc. was incorporated in the State of California. Diagnostic Data changed its incorporation to the State of Delaware in 1972; and changed its name to DDI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in 1985. In 1994, DDI Pharmaceuticals merged with International BioClinical, Inc. and Bioxytech S.A. and changed its name to OXIS International, Inc.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted herein. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial information presented herein reflects all normal adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The Company is responsible for the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included in this report. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
 
Going Concern
 
As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of $121,820,000 through September 30, 2016.  On a consolidated basis, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $154,000 at September 30, 2016. The Company's plan is to raise additional capital until such time that the Company generates sufficient revenues to cover its cash flow needs and/or it achieves profitability. However, the Company cannot assure that it will accomplish this task and there are many factors that may prevent the Company from reaching its goal of profitability.
 
The current rate of cash usage raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, absent any sources of significant cash flows.  In an effort to mitigate this near-term concern the Company intends to seek additional equity or debt financing to obtain sufficient funds to sustain operations.  However, the Company cannot provide assurance that it will successfully obtain equity or debt or other financing, if any, sufficient to finance its goals or that the Company will generate future product related revenues.  The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue in existence.

(UNAUDITED)
Basis of Consolidation and Comprehensive Income
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of OXIS International, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
The Company's cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and accounts receivable are monitored for exposure to concentrations of credit risk. The Company maintains substantially all of its cash balances in a limited number of financial institutions. The balances are each insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company does not have balances in excess of this limit at September 30, 2016.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of debt is based upon current interest rates for debt instruments with comparable maturities and characteristics and approximates the carrying amount.
 
Stock Based Compensation to Other than Employees
 
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with ASC 718. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably determinable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earlier of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.
 
Impairment of Long Lived Assets
 
The Company's long-lived assets currently consist of capitalized patents. The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If any of the Company's long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the amount of impairment to be recognized is equal to the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over the fair value of the assets.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach, whereby deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax effects, based on current enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between financial and tax reporting for current and prior periods. Deferred tax assets are reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance if the corresponding future tax benefits may not be realized.

Net Income (Loss) per Share
 
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the potential dilutive effect of common shares issuable upon exercise or conversion of outstanding stock options and warrants during the period. The weighted average number of potentially dilutive common shares excluded from the calculation of net income (loss) per share totaled in 38,410,084 and 2,039,480 as of September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
 
Patents
 
Acquired patents are capitalized at their acquisition cost or fair value. The legal costs, patent registration fees and models and drawings required for filing patent applications are capitalized if they relate to commercially viable technologies. Commercially viable technologies are those technologies that are projected to generate future positive cash flows in the near term. Legal costs associated with patent applications that are not determined to be commercially viable are expensed as incurred. All research and development costs incurred in developing the patentable idea are expensed as incurred. Legal fees from the costs incurred in successful defense to the extent of an evident increase in the value of the patents are capitalized.
 
 
Capitalized cost for pending patents are amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining twenty year legal life of each patent after the costs have been incurred. Once each patent is issued, capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the patent's remaining statutory life, estimated economic life or ten years.
 
Fixed Assets
 
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are 3 to 10 years for machinery and equipment and the shorter of the lease term or estimated economic life for leasehold improvements.
 
Fair Value
 
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest.  The three levels are defined as follows:
 
● 
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. The Company’s Level 1 assets include cash equivalents, primarily institutional money market funds, whose carrying value represents fair value because of their short-term maturities of the investments held by these funds.
 
● 
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. The Company’s Level 2 liabilities consist of liabilities arising from the issuance of convertible securities and in accordance with ASC 815-40: a warrant liability for detachable warrants, as well as an accrued derivative liability for the beneficial conversion feature. These liabilities are remeasured each reporting period. Fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model based on observable market inputs, such as share price data and a discount rate consistent with that of a government-issued security of a similar maturity.
 
● 
Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and reported as research and development expense. Research and development costs totaling $725,000 and $475,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
License Revenue
 
License arrangements may consist of non-refundable upfront license fees, exclusive licensed rights to patented or patent pending technology, and various performance or sales milestones and future product royalty payments. Some of these arrangements are multiple element arrangements.
 
Non-refundable, up-front fees that are not contingent on any future performance by us, and require no consequential continuing involvement on our part, are recognized as revenue when the license term commences and the licensed data, technology and/or compound is delivered.  We defer recognition of non-refundable upfront fees if we have continuing performance obligations without which the technology, right, product or service conveyed in conjunction with the non-refundable fee has no utility to the licensee that is separate and independent of our performance under the other elements of the arrangement. In addition, if we have continuing involvement through research and development services that are required because our know-how and expertise related to the technology is proprietary to us, or can only be performed by us, then such up-front fees are deferred and recognized over the period of continuing involvement.
 
Payments related to substantive, performance-based milestones in a research and development arrangement are recognized as revenue upon the achievement of the milestones as specified in the underlying agreements when they represent the culmination of the earnings process.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities revenues and expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Debt
 
Convertible debentures
 
On October 25, 2006, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (“2006 Purchase Agreement”) with four accredited investors (the “2006 Purchasers”). In conjunction with the signing of the 2006 Purchase Agreement, the Company issued secured convertible debentures (“2006 Debentures”) and Series A, B, C, D, and E common stock warrants (“2006 Warrants”) to the 2006 Purchasers, and the parties also entered into a security agreement (the “2006 Security Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to grant the 2006 Purchasers, pari passu, a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the 2006 Purchase Agreement, the Company issued the 2006 Debentures in an aggregate principal amount of $1,694,250 to the 2006 Purchasers. The 2006 Debentures are subject to an original issue discount of 20.318% resulting in proceeds to the Company of $1,350,000 from the transaction. The 2006 Debentures were due on October 25, 2008. The 2006 Debentures are convertible, at the option of the 2006 Purchasers, at any time prior to payment in full, into shares of common stock of the Company. As a result of the full ratchet anti-dilution provision the current conversion price is $2.50 per share (the “2006 Conversion Price”). Beginning on the first of the month beginning February 1, 2007, the Company was required to amortize the 2006 Debentures in equal installments on a monthly basis resulting in a complete repayment by the maturity date (the “Monthly Redemption Amounts”). The Monthly Redemption Amounts could have been paid in cash or in shares, subject to certain restrictions. If the Company chose to make any Monthly Redemption Amount payment in shares of common stock, the price per share would have been the lesser of the Conversion Price then in effect and 85% of the weighted average price for the 10-trading days prior to the due date of the Monthly Redemption Amount. The Company did not make any of the required monthly redemption payments.
 
Pursuant to the provisions of the 2006 Debentures, such non-payment was an event of default and penalty interest has accrued on the unpaid redemption balance at an interest rate equal to the lower of 18% per annum and the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. In addition, each of the 2006 Purchasers has the right to accelerate the cash repayment of at least 130% of the outstanding principal amount of the 2006 Debenture (plus accrued but unpaid liquidated damages and interest) and to sell substantially all of the Company’s assets pursuant to the provisions of the 2006 Security Agreement to satisfy any such unpaid balance. On June 6, 2008, the Company received notification from Bristol Investment Fund, Ltd (“Bristol”), that the collateral held under the 2006 Security Agreement would be sold to the highest qualified bidder on Thursday, June 19, 2008. On June 19, 2008, the Company received a Notice of Disposition of Collateral from Bristol in which Bristol notified the Company that Bristol, acting as the agent for itself and the three other 2006 Purchasers, purchased certain assets held as collateral under the 2006 Security Agreement. Bristol purchased 111,025 shares of common stock of BioCheck, Inc., the Company’s majority owned subsidiary, on a credit bid of $50,000, and Bristol also purchased 1,000 shares of the capital stock of OXIS Therapeutics, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of OXIS, for a credit bid of $10,000. In December 2005, OXIS purchased the 111,025 shares of common stock of BioCheck, Inc. for $3,060,000. After crediting the aggregate amount of $60,000 to the aggregate amount due under the 2006 Debentures, plus fees and charges due through June 19, 2008, Bristol notified the Company that the Company remains obligated to the 2006 Purchasers in a deficiency in an aggregate amount of $2,688,000 as of June 19, 2008. As a result of the disposition of the collateral, the Company recorded a net loss aggregating $2,978,000.
 
Under the 2006 Purchase Agreement, the 2006 Purchasers also have a right of first refusal to participate in up to 100% of any future financing undertaken by the Company until the 2006 Debentures are no longer outstanding. In addition, the Company is also prohibited from effecting any subsequent financing involving a variable rate transaction until such time as no 2006 Purchaser holds any of the 2006 Debentures. Furthermore, so long as any 2006 Purchaser holds any of the securities issued under the 2006 Purchase Agreement, if the Company issues or sells any common stock or instruments convertible into common stock which a 2006 Purchaser reasonably believes is on terms more favorable to such investors than the terms pursuant to the 2006 Debentures or 2006 Warrants, the Company is obligated to permit such 2006 Purchaser the benefits of such better terms.

Of the 2006 Warrants issued by the Company to the 2006 Purchasers, only the Series A Warrants remain outstanding. The Series A Warrants, which now expire in July 2019, permit the holders to purchase 9,681 shares of common stock at an original exercise price of $87.50 per share. Such exercise price is adjustable pursuant to a full ratchet anti-dilution provision and upon the occurrence of a stock split or a related event.
 
During 2009, Bristol converted $177,900 of the principal amount of 2006 Debentures for 71,160 shares of the Company’s common stock. During 2010, Bristol converted an additional $401,000 of the principal amount of 2006 Debentures for 160,400 shares of the Company’s common stock. During 2011, an additional $605,000 of the principal amount of 2006 Debentures was converted into 242,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. During 2012, an additional $369,625 of the principal amount of 2006 Debentures was converted into 350,619 shares of the Company’s common stock.
 
The 2006 Debentures do not meet the definition of a “conventional convertible debt instrument” since they are not convertible into a fixed number of shares. The Monthly Redemption Amounts can be paid with common stock at a conversion price that is a percentage of the market price; therefore the number of shares that could be required to be delivered upon “net-share settlement” is essentially indeterminate. Therefore, the 2006 Debentures are considered “non-conventional,” which means that the conversion feature must be bifurcated from the debt and shown as a separate derivative liability. This beneficial conversion liability has been calculated to be $690,000 on October 25, 2006. In addition, since the 2006 Debentures are convertible into an indeterminate number of shares of common stock, it is assumed that the Company could never have enough authorized and unissued shares to settle the conversion of the 2006 Warrants issues in this transaction into common stock. Therefore, the 2006 Warrants have a fair value of $2,334,000 at October 25, 2006. The value of the 2006 Warrant was calculated using the Black-Scholes model using the following assumptions: Discount rate of 4.5%, volatility of 158% and expected term of 1 to 6 years. The fair value of the beneficial conversion feature and the 2006 Warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value on each balance sheet date with the change being shown as a component of net loss. The fair value of the beneficial conversion feature and the 2006 Warrants at the inception of the 2006 Debentures were $690,000 and $2,334,000, respectively. The first $1,350,000 of these discounts was amortized over the term of the 2006 Debenture and the excess of $1,674,000 was shown as financing costs in statement of operations.
 
The Company and Bristol entered into a Forbearance Agreement on December 3, 2015, pursuant to which Bristol agreed to refrain and forbear from exercising certain rights and remedies with respect the 2006 Debentures for three months. In exchange for the Forbearance Agreement, the Company issued an allonge in the amount of $250,000 increasing the principal amount if the 2006 Debentures.
 
On October 1, 2009, the Company entered into a financing arrangement with several accredited investors (the “2009 Investors”), pursuant to which it sold various securities in consideration of a maximum aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000 (the “2009 Financing”). In connection with the 2009 Financing, the Company issued the following securities to the 2009 Investors:
 
● 
0% Convertible Debentures in the principal amount of $2,000,000 due 24 months from the date of issuance (the “ 2009 Debentures”), convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share conversion price equal to $12.50 per share;
● 
Series A warrant to purchase such number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 50% of the principal amount invested by each 2009 Investor (the “2009 Class A Warrants” ) resulting in the issuance of Class A Warrants to purchase 80,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
● 
Series B warrant to purchase such number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 50% of the principal amount invested by each 2009 Investor (the “2009 Class B Warrants”) resulting in the issuance of Class B Warrants to purchase 80,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
 
The Class A Warrants and Class B Warrants (collectively, the “ 2009 Warrants”) are exercisable for up to five years from the date of issue at a per share exercise price equal to $15.625 and $18.75 for the Class A Warrants and the Class B Warrants, respectively, on a cash or cashless basis. The 2009 Debentures and the 2009 Warrants are collectively referred to herein as the “2009 Securities”.

In connection with the sale of the 2009 Securities by the Company, the Company and Bristol entered a Standstill and Forbearance Agreement, pursuant to which Bristol agreed to refrain and forbear from exercising certain rights and remedies with respect to (i) the 2006 Debentures and (ii) certain demand notes (the “Bridge Notes”) issued by the Company on October 8, 2008, March 19, 2009, April 7, 2009, April 28, 2009, May 21, 2009 and June 25, 2009 and discussed under the caption “Demand Notes” below.

The conversion price of the 2009 Debentures and the exercise price of the 2009 Warrants are subject to full ratchet anti-dilution adjustment in the event that the Company thereafter issues common stock or common stock equivalents at a price per share less than the conversion price or the exercise price, respectively, and to other normal and customary anti-dilution adjustment upon certain other events. So long as the 2009 Debentures are outstanding, if the Company effects a subsequent financing, the October 2009 Investors may elect, in their sole discretion, to exchange all or some of the October 2009 Debentures (but not the 2009 Warrants) for any securities or units issued in a subsequent financing on a $1.00 for $1.00 basis or to have any particular provisions of the subsequent financing legal documents apply to the documents utilized for the October 2009 Financing.
 
The Company also agreed that if it determines to prepare and file with the Commission a registration statement relating to an offering for its own account or the account of others, then it shall include the shares of common stock underlying the 2009 Securities on such registration statement. The 2009 Investors have contractually agreed to restrict their ability to convert the 2009 Debentures and exercise the 2009 Warrants and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of the Company common stock held by a 2009 Investor and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.9% of the Company’s then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
 
During 2010, 2009 Investors converted $1,335,000 of the principal amount of 2009 Debentures for 106,800 shares of the Company’s common stock. During 2011, 2009 Investors converted $610,000 of the principal amount of 2009 Debentures for 48,800 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Overview
 
OXIS International, Inc., through its wholly owned subsidiary Oxis Biotech, Inc, is an immuno-oncology company with a robust technology platform consisting of bispecific and trispecific scFv constructs, full-length antibodies, proprietary drug payloads, proprietary antibody-drug linkers, dual-drug payload antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), bispecific targeted ADCs, and NK cell and T-cell antibody directed cell-mediated cytotoxic (ADDCs) agents.
 
OXS-1550
 
OXS-1550 is a bispecific scFv recombinant fusion protein-drug conjugate composed of the variable regions of the heavy and light chains of anti-CD19 and anti-CD22 antibodies and a modified form of diphtheria toxin as its cytotoxic drug payload.  CD19 is a membrane glycoprotein present on the surface of all stages of B-lymphocyte development, and is also expressed on most B-cell mature lymphoma cells and leukemia cells.  CD22 is a glycoprotein expressed on B-lineage lymphoid precursors, including precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and often is co-expressed with CD19 on mature B-cell malignancies such as lymphoma.
 
OXS-1550 targets cancer cells expressing the CD19 receptor or CD22 receptor or both receptors.  When OXS-1550 binds to cancer cells, the cancer cells internalize OXS-1550, and are killed due to the action of drug's cytotoxic diphtheria toxin payload.  OXS-1550 has demonstrated success in a Phase 1 human clinical trial in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma or leukemia.
 
Oxis began enrolling patients in a Phase 1/Phase 2 trial of OXS-1550 during the second quarter of 2016. The FDA-approved clinical trial is being conducted at the University of Minnesota's Masonic Cancer Center. There are currently 32 patients who have participated in the clinical trial. The nine new patients bring to 32 the number of patients who have participated in the clinical trial. All the new patients are given an approved increased dosage of OXS-1550.

Trispecific Killer Engager (TriKE) Technology
 
The TriKE platform is designed to address the issue of making NK cells antigen specific by modifying a bispecific antibody platform and adding a third signal by inserting a modified IL-15 cross linker. IL-15 is known as a chief activator of NK cells that can enhance an anti-cancer immune response. This new trispecific platform is unique because it simultaneously delivers a priming, expansion, killing, and activating signal directly to the immune cell as it is in contact with the cancer cell. We are now working currently working toward FDA approved clinical trials to demonstrate TriKE safety and efficacy. Unlike standard anti-cancer antibodies, we believe that TriKE can mediate specificity and deliver an immune expansion signal locally (instead of systemically) which has the potential to diminish toxicity.
 
OXS-4235, p62/SQSTM1 (Sequestosome-1) Inhibitor Drug Development Program
 
In humans, the p62/SQSTM1 protein is encoded by the SQSTM1 gene.  The p62/SQSTM1 protein is a multifunctional protein involved in autophagy, cell signaling, tumorigenesis, and plays an important role at the crossroad between autophagy and cancer.  Cell-cell interactions between multiple myeloma cells and bone marrow stromal cells activate signaling pathways that result in enhanced multiple myeloma cell growth, osteoclast formation, and inhibition of osteoblast differentiation.
 
 
Multiple myeloma remains an incurable malignancy with systematic morbidity and a median survival of 3-5 years.  Multiple myeloma is characterized by aberrant proliferation of terminally differentiated plasma cells and impairment in apoptosis capacity.  Due to the interactions between myeloma cells and cells of the bone marrow microenvironment, the osteolytic bone disease associated with myeloma is inextricably linked with tumor progression.  High incidence of bone metastasis in multiple myeloma patients is frequently associated with severe bone pain and pathological bone fracture.  Activated osteoclast levels and suppressed osteoblast levels are thought to play a role in multiple myeloma associated osteolytic bone disease.
 
While a diverse spectrum of novel agents has shown therapeutic potential for the treatment of multiple myeloma including bortezomib, lenalidomide and arsenic trioxide, high relapse rates and drug resistance continue to plague these therapies.  Thus, novel targets and new therapeutics for the treatment of multiple myeloma are of critical importance for improved patient outcomes.
 
It has been demonstrated that the ZZ domain of the p62/SQSTM1 protein is responsible for increased multiple myeloma cell growth and associated osteoclast mediated bone disease.  Dr. Xiang-Qun Xie and colleagues at ID4 Pharma LLC have developed novel chemical compounds (e.g., OXS-4235) which inhibit osteoclastic bone destruction in multiple myeloma.  Oxis Biotech has exclusively licensed rights to OXS-4235 and other compounds for the treatment of multiple myeloma and associated osteolytic bone disease.
 
OXS-2175, Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Drug Development Program
 
OXS-2175 is a small molecule therapeutic candidate which has shown promise in early-stage preclinical in vitro and in vivo models of triple-negative breast cancer.  Oxis Biotech is investigating OXS-2175 formulated as an ADC therapy for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer.
 
Therapeutic Antibody-Drug Conjugates Drug Development Program
 
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are a new class of highly potent biopharmaceutical drugs designed as a targeted therapy for the treatment of cancer.  By combining the unique targeting capabilities of monoclonal antibodies with the cancer-killing ability of cytotoxic drugs, antibody-drug conjugates allow sensitive discrimination between healthy and diseased tissue.

Recent Developments
 
Restructuring Agreements
 
Effective January 8, 2016, Company entered into agreements to effect the restructuring (the “Restructuring”) of certain unregistered debt and equity securities of the Company that will result in an issuance of up to 28,389,193 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”).  In connection with the Restructuring, the Company entered into a note conversion agreement (the “Conversion Agreement”), a warrant exercise agreement (the “Exercise Agreement”) and a preferred stock exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement” and, collectively with the Conversion Agreement and the Exercise Agreement, the “Restructuring Agreements”), pursuant to which the Company and certain of the Company’s creditors and investors have agreed that (i) certain outstanding debt of the Company (collectively, the “Debt”) will be converted into shares of Common Stock; (ii) certain outstanding warrants to purchase shares of capital stock of the Company (collectively, the “Warrants”) will be exercised on a cashless basis for shares of Common Stock;  and (iii) certain outstanding shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Series H Preferred Stock”) and Series I Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Series I Preferred Stock” and together with the Series H Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”) will be exchanged for shares of Common Stock.  The Conversion Agreement, Exercise Agreement and Exchange Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are described in further detail below.  
 
Under the Conversion Agreement, certain creditors of the Company holding an aggregate of approximately $15,056,000 (including accrued interest and penalties) of outstanding Debt agreed to convert all such outstanding Debt into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.25 per share upon successful completion by the Company of a $6 million financing. However, since the financing did not occur by March 15, 2016, the Conversion Agreement was terminated.
 
In addition, under the Exercise Agreement, certain investors together holding warrants to purchase 12,269,240 shares of capital stock of the Company exchanged such warrants and received one share of Common Stock in exchange for each share of capital stock of the Company underlying the warrants.

Results of Operations
 
Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2016 and 2015
 
Research and Development Expenses
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, we incurred $250,000 and $225,000 of research and development expenses.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, we incurred $2,280,000 and $2,552,000 of selling, general and administrative expenses.  The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to an increase in professional fees, license fees investor relations and stock compensation.
 
Change in value of warrant and derivative liabilities
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded a gain as a result of a decrease in the fair market value of outstanding warrants and beneficial conversion features of $436,000, compared to a gain of $2,809,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2015. This reduction is a result of a decrease in the fair market value of outstanding debt and equity securities accounted for as derivative liabilities and the conversion of warrants to common stock.
 
Interest Expense
 
Interest expense was $1,536,000 and $1,724,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 respectively.  The decrease is primarily due to an decrease in the non-cash amortization of the debt issuance costs associated with the convertible debentures and demand notes payable and expenses related the issuance of additional shares

 Interest Expense
 
Interest expense was $4,781,000 and $10,012,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 respectively.  The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in the non-cash amortization of the debt issuance costs associated with the convertible debentures and demand notes payable, non-cash interest related to the beneficial conversion feature of new debt and expenses related the issuance of additional shares
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
On a consolidated basis, we had cash and cash equivalents of $154,000 at September 30, 2016 and $16,966,000 of current liabilities (of which $16,782,000 represented current cash obligations and $184,000 represented non-cash warrant liabilities and accrued expenses).  As a result, on a cash basis, as of September 30, 2016, we had a working capital deficit of $16,810,000.  In addition, we have an accumulated deficit of $121,820,000 through September 30, 2016.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
We consider the following accounting policies to be critical given they involve estimates and judgments made by management and are important for our investors’ understanding of our operating results and financial condition.
  
 
24
 
 
Basis of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements contained in this report include the accounts of OXIS International, Inc. and its subsidiaries.  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Product Revenue
 
The Company manufactures, or has manufactured on a contract basis, fine chemicals and nutraceutical products, which are its primary products to be sold to customers. Revenue from the sale of its products, including shipping fees, will be recognized when title to the products is transferred to the customer which usually occurs upon shipment or delivery, depending upon the terms of the sales order and when collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue from sales to distributors of its products will be recognized, net of allowances, upon delivery of product to the distributors. According to the terms of individual distributor contracts, a distributor may return product up to a maximum amount and under certain conditions contained in its contract. Allowances are calculated based upon historical data, current economic conditions and the underlying contractual terms.
 
License Revenue
 
License arrangements may consist of non-refundable upfront license fees and various performance or sales milestones and future product royalty payments.  Some of these arrangements are multiple element arrangements.  Non-refundable, up-front fees that are not contingent on any future performance by us, and require no consequential continuing involvement on our part, are recognized as revenue when the license term commences and the licensed data, technology and/or compound is delivered.  We defer recognition of non-refundable upfront fees if we have continuing performance obligations without which the technology, right, product or service conveyed in conjunction with the non-refundable fee has no utility to the licensee that is separate and independent of our performance under the other elements of the arrangement.  In addition, if we have continuing involvement through research and development services that are required because our know-how and expertise related to the technology is proprietary to us, or can only be performed by us, then such up-front fees are deferred and recognized over the period of continuing involvement.
 
Long-Lived Assets
 
Our long-lived assets include property, plant and equipment, capitalized costs of filing patent applications and goodwill and other assets.  We evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with ASC 360, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable.  Estimates of future cash flows and timing of events for evaluating long-lived assets for impairment are based upon management’s judgment.  If any of our intangible or long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the amount of impairment to be recognized is the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over its fair value.
 
Applicable long-lived assets are amortized or depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives, the estimated period that the assets will generate revenue, or the statutory or contractual term in the case of patents.  Estimates of useful lives and periods of expected revenue generation are reviewed periodically for appropriateness and are based upon management’s judgment.  Goodwill and other assets are not amortized.
 
Certain Expenses and Liabilities
 
On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates related to certain expenses and accrued liabilities.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
 
25
 
 
Derivative Financial Instruments
 
During the normal course of business, from time to time, we issue warrants as part of a debt or equity financing. We do not enter into any derivative contracts for speculative purposes. We recognize all derivatives as assets or liabilities measured at fair value with changes in fair value of derivatives reflected as current period income or loss unless the derivatives qualify for hedge accounting and are accounted for as such. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, we issued warrants to purchase 3,475,111 and 376,000 shares of common stock, respectively, in connection with equity transactions. In accordance with ASC Topic 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Stock” (“ASC 815-40”), the value of these warrants is required to be recorded as a liability, as the holders have an option to put the warrants back to us in certain events, as defined.
 
Inflation
 
We believe that inflation has not had a material adverse impact on our business or operating results during the periods presented.
 
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2016.
 
Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
This company qualifies as a smaller reporting company, as defined in 17 C.F.R. §229.10(f) (1) and is not required to provide information by this Item.
 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of September 30, 2016.  Based on that evaluation we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2016.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by a company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
 
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
 
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
 
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
 
26
 
 
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.  Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
 
As of September 30, 2016, management of the company conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting.  In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework.  In the course of the assessment, material weaknesses were identified in the company’s internal control over financial reporting.
 
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
 
Management determined that fundamental elements of an effective control environment were missing or inadequate as of September 30, 2016.  The most significant issues identified were: 1) lack of segregation of duties due to very small staff and significant reliance on outside consultants, and 2) risks of executive override also due to lack of established policies, and small employee staff.  Based on the material weaknesses identified above, management has concluded that internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2016.  As the company’s operations increase, the company intends to hire additional employees in its accounting department.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Other than as described above, no changes in our internal control over financial reporting were made during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
